GLEN MILLS, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Axalta Coating Systems and driver Jeff Gordon continue to sizzle this
summer with another win at Michigan International Speedway (MIS) on
August 17, 2014. This is the third win of the season and 91st

right now. We’ve been bringing great race cars to the track every
